Description

Evelyn Waugh: A Life Revisited by Philip Eade is a meticulously researched biography that sheds new light on one of the 20th century's most fascinating writers. Waugh's life was marked by contradictions and complexities, from his tumultuous relationships with family members to his formative experiences at university, where he explored his homosexuality. His literary career was also shaped by these early influences, as well as his conversion to Roman Catholicism and his subsequent marriage. This biography offers a nuanced and engaging portrait of Waugh's life, revealing the man behind the myth. Scrupulously researched and sympathetically written, it is a compelling new assessment of one of England's most celebrated writers.
